Street Prophets: Comments Words, Violence, Nuance and Proportion: Our Existential Crisis

I've been having a very good conversation (0 / 0)

with a friend who is a European cartoonist--a Belgian--exploring how we both feel about all this, and what we think....
If someone could harness the power of human stupidity, we've no doubt that the energy crisis would be solved. Forever.
Stupid, stacked on stupid, piled high on still more stupid.
My firm stance is that both "sides" are firmly right AND are completely deranged and wrong headed. It gets worse from there. <sigh>

  We can't talk about "them" any more without "them" overhearing us.
  Which means we can speak as loosely as we once did.
  Sometimes I think that is why our age is so very angry -- we overhear things today that never used to come to our attention.
  The world was always rude, but because of technology is it always "in your face" rude now.
